Old Soldiers

He stares through the trees, sure he heard something. He was right, too. There’s a girl who oughtn’t to be here, dressed in skins.
What happens after he can’t say. If he did, it’d involve a thing with tentacles, him getting clobbered.
Next thing, he’s looking up at her, covered in green goo.
“You should be more watchful.” She is stern.
“You distracted me.”
She likes that: brave warrior, her face alight at one compliment. Funny girl. She kisses him on the forehead, and leaves.

Years later, they both watch Gallifrey burn. Different times, different places. Same old soldiers.
